Moa Bogen

Amidst the vibrant tapestry of Berlin, the Moa Bogen stands as a modern marvel. It’s a striking fusion of commerce, leisure, and community spirit. The Moa Bogen isn’t just a building; it’s a microcosm of urban life. This shopping center in the heart of Moabit pulsates with activity. Shops, restaurants, a fitness center, and even the local community center, BürSte, all reside within its walls. The Moa Bogen’s design is captivating. The rounded, glass-clad corner of the building is a standout feature. Regular subdivisions in the facade create a visually impressive pattern. Ceiling-high windows alternate with solid panels, giving it a rhythmic appearance. Colorful terracotta panels in shades of yellow and red add warmth and texture. These panels, with their wave profile and double-fired glazing, extend this vibrant color scheme into the interior and the multi-story car park. Dark steel bands frame the glass and terracotta surfaces. These bands wrap around the building at each floor, lending an air of elegance. The Moa Bogen also boasts an impressive ETFE roof over its inner courtyard. This transparent roof allows natural light to flood the space, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The ETFE cushions, supported by a lightweight aluminum frame and a decorative steel substructure, give the impression of airy lightness. A subtle dot matrix print on the underside of the roof helps to filter excessive sunlight. The Moa Bogen is more than just a shopping center. It houses the Hotel Moa, part of the Best Western Hotels Germany GmbH. This adds another dimension to its function as a hub of activity. The architects, nps tchoban voss, have created a space that seamlessly integrates into the urban fabric while offering a unique and engaging experience for visitors. The Moa Bogen is a testament to modern architecture and urban planning. It stands as a vibrant addition to the bustling district of Moabit.
